Birthday presents II

Second in our selection of exclusive covers is someone whose new album we appraised just the other day, the creeping dread of Paul Hawkins & Thee Awkward Silences. Here he and they tackle another overly literate writer, one that we've been banging on about for a couple of years now but who managed to gain his widest sweep of press popularity this year through his long defunct band Nosferatu D2, Ben Parker AKA Superman Revenge Squad. Bonus points, like Jimmy Saville used to suggest, for anyone who can name the source of the spoken bit at the start.
